This set of two is a joyous melody of shapes and colors, this piece sings with the exuberance of spring. Bold, curvilinear forms in a palette of pastel orange, sunny yellow, soft lavender, and sage green interlock in a harmonious composition, reminiscent of blooming flora and festive ribbons. These playful forms seem to dance across the canvas, inviting the eye to follow their joyful procession. The white outlines that trace the shapes bring a crisp freshness to the image, ensuring each color stands distinct yet contributes to a cohesive whole. This artwork is a visual celebration, a bright and inviting addition to any space that yearns for a whisper of playfulness and a burst of light-hearted charm.

The majority of Vera's original artwork is unsigned and undated. This absence of her signature is largely due to her original artwork being used in textile and houseware designs, where her trademarked signature was later added. Typically, her original artwork was named after being incorporated into a master strike off. In some instances, the date of the piece was added to the back; however, this date may signify when the artwork was trademarked or presented to a customer. Some of her original pieces include notes on the back, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of The Vera Company.
